Could you please elaborate on this a bit?
What exactly did you have in mind when talking about
"migrating threads or tasklets" ?
Does this involve transporting code across nodes,
or only the 'execution' (and data)?
Pyro supports transporting code, but with a few important limitations,
such as "once loaded, not reloaded".
